The object of my affection is sending me signals
that I cannot understand.
He hugs me tight and we flirt whenever
we are with each other,
but at school he acts as if we are strangers
He hints that he feels the same way as I do, as we talk
on the way home from school.
Am I getting the wrong vibes?
Am I mistaken that he feels the same way?
Could he be ashamed to like me, afraid of what his boys
might say?
He even told me he likes me,
but he made up some lame excuse why he didn't want to
get into a relationship.
Why did he have to lie?
I'm hurt that he just could not be straight with me,
after I told him how I felt.
Why was he trying to protect me?
Did he think I was too weak to and couldn't handle the
truth?
I'm fighting to get over him, but
everytime I get my head up he pulls me
back under his spell.
What can I do to get away from him, and forget
everything that has happened.
He's sending me signals that I cannot understand,
I wish he would just tell me how he feels.
